New Famous Sword Model Found in Season of Discovery Phase 4 PTR
The model for a new sword — half of Mannoroth's broken glaive from Demon Fall Canyon — has been datamined on the Season of Discovery Phase 4 PTR!
We've recently reported on the possibility of a new dungeon instance coming to Ashenvale in Phase 4, and one of the related items, the Dreadblade of the Destructor, isn't just a random addition — its model holds deep significance to the area, being half of Mannoroth's broken glaive.
Demon Fall Canyon certainly earned its name — according to Warcraft Wiki, this cursed area was the site of the final confrontation between Mannoroth and two of the greatest Orc heroes — Thrall and Grommash Hellscream. With Thrall unconscious due to the Pit Lord's relentless attacks, Grommash Hellscream made his final stand, smiting both Mannoroth's glaive and Mannoroth himself.

With Mannoroth's glaive hanging eternally in Demon Fall Canyon, it looks like we may be finally picking up the pieces — literally.
